Checkboxes Are Unchecking At the Wrong Time

Question

My checkboxes are appearing upon button click and disappearing upon the same button click, to facilitate a multi-select mode. Everything works as expected, except I want them to uncheck when they disappear so that when the button is clicked again, nothing is checked. The unchecking of the boxes, however, appears to occur as they are made visible again. So, instead of a set of empty, unchecked boxes appearing, the boxes appear, and then they uncheck. Can someone confirm if this is a bug in C# or what I am doing wrong? Here is my toggle method:

public void ToggleCheckBoxes()
{
ListView musicList = (ListView)Parent.FindViewById(Resource.Id.mymusic_musiclist);

        for(int i = 0; i < musicList.ChildCount; i++)  
        {  
            View v = musicList.GetChildAt(i);  
            CheckBox cb = (CheckBox)v.FindViewById(Resource.Id.selectedBox);  
            ImageView iv = (ImageView)v.FindViewById(Resource.Id.icon);  


            if (cb.Visibility.Equals(ViewStates.Invisible))  
            {  
                cb.Visibility = ViewStates.Visible;  
                iv.SetPadding(80, 0, 0, 0);  
            }  
            else  
            {  
                cb.Checked = false;  
                cb.Visibility = ViewStates.Invisible;  
                iv.SetPadding(0, 0, 0, 0);  
            }  
        }  
    }

Hello,

I've tested your code on Xamarin.Android and native android. On each platform, the Checkboxes will be unchecking at the wrong time.

Therefore, it should be an issue on native Android.

It is recommended to post your issue on the Android Help - Google.
